“I am deeply saddened by the impact this episode is having on people who are not involved in this controversy in any way,” he writes in his resignation statement. “Neither my partners, nor my company, were involved with Museum Tower or my efforts in any way. I have resigned my position with Ropewalkers and have ended my efforts on behalf of Museum Tower.”

If you click through to his resignation letter, you will also note that Ropewalkers wants to make it crystal-clear: It has nothing to do with Snyder’s actions.

“Neither Ropewalkers (as a company) nor any associate or employee acting on behalf of Ropewalkers, has been hired, retained, or promised anything of value by anyone, or any organization, associated in any way with either The Museum Tower, The Dallas Police and Fire Pension System or The Nasher Sculpture Center,” says the statement, “nor has any work been discussed nor any work done for any person or persons, individually or as part of another group involved in any way with this issue, or its ancillary positions, in any way associated with any of the players at all involved.”

“While the comments I made contained accurate facts and data, I regret I was not always transparent in the posting of comments on news blogs by using my own name,” writes Snyder.”I am sincerely sorry and apologize to those people whom I offended using a screen name, specifically Mayor Rawlings, Tom Luce and Joe Heinz.”
